Be able to set an in/out point for the looping playback that is shorter than the viewed composition.

Here's a screenshot from Adobe After Effects illustrating their "Work Area" feature.

Use Case

A lot of the time I'm fine-tuning animations in a longer sequence and I just want to set an in/out point, a working area, while I'm doing that.

Suggested scope

  • Set in/out points by placing the playhead at a certain position and then click a UI button to set in and out point.
  • Dragging is nice, but totally not a must-have, so skip it in first version
  • When switching comps it's not necessary to remember the work area, nice to have, but not a must-have

I like that idea!

Hey, I am really sorry. I was actually working on this issue since yesterday, and have implemented the feature in my local but, I totally forgot to request to assign this issue to me. 😥

@ankeshp03 Ok, open the PR nonetheless and then let's see! @sergiomensing did you already start working on this? If not, would the two of you be willing to collaborate on the PR?

posted by JonnyBurger over 3 years ago

I did work on this for a while, but did not finish yet. Looking at your PR @ankeshp03 I took the same approach. So I don't have anything to add really.
